Crown's view of industrial finishing technology

Abstract

Crown's parent is of course part of Reed International, itself an industrial as well as consumer‐orientated company. And Crown ‘mirrors’ Reed. It has an industrial arm which is equally vigorous and just as successful in its own markets as Crown's retail arm is in the consumer market. We have been closely identified with many outstanding developments in industrial finishing technology over the years. For instance, in print finishing, the lamination of oriented polypropylene film to board is made possible by adhesives first developed and marketed by Crown which are now the standards by which all other film‐to‐board laminating adhesives are measured. Or take coil coating, the art of prefinishing metal. Crown is a founder member of the European Coil Coating Association and probably supplies more coatings to this industry than any other UK paint supplier. So we are old hands at industrial finishing — and at supplying ‘state‐of‐the‐art’ high technology finishes.
